GDT: 4 Crafty Chicks Challenge #201: Nautical

Today, I am THRILLED...and honored to be this months guest designer, with the lovely and talented ladies at 4 Crafty Chicks. I frequently play along with their challenges, but this is the first time I have the privilege of playing along with them. So thank you ladies, for having me on board this month!!

This weeks challenge theme is:

NAUTICAL

When I received my GDT assignment sheet, I realized that I didn't have anything Nautical themed in my collection of stamps. So I turned to my online buddies, who thankfully had this beauty. Her name is: Dangling Sea Tilda. She is from an older collection, but I didn't care...She was too cute and thought she fit the theme perfectly. I tried to make the background look like planks, but the wood-grain pattern is faintly apparent in the photos.

Well I hope that you will stop by 4 Crafty Chicksand play along with us this week.

Looking forwarding to seeing your entries.

I would like to share this card in the following challenges:Muse Challenge #74
I loved the design, but have a hard time with white spaces, so I created my own background paper, keeping the same idea of the sketch in tact and adding my image to the side.

Hi! I am trying to leave my message for the second time so if it is repeated feel free to delete it. We are super stoked to have you with us at 4 Crafty Chicks for the Month of July. I can't wait to see your fabulous inspiration each week. The porthole on your card this week is rockin and that image of Tilda on the anchor sure does pack a punch for WOW FACTOR!. I love your background paper too,

I adore Magnolia stamps even though I don't feel like I'm very good at bringing them to life on a card! It's been a while since I've played with them, so thanks for giving me a little poke to do that! :)

Your card is so sweet with little Tilda sitting there on the anchor! That wood plank background is perfect for the scene!
